Sim-Lab launches Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Sim Racing Wheel

Sim-Lab has released a new sim racing wheel called the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team Sim Racing Steering Wheel. This wheel is officially licensed and the result of a collaboration between the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 team and Sim-Lab. It was designed using precise official CAD data and incorporates various real-world manufacturing processes.

The main body is made from a handcrafted carbon fiber casing, providing unmatched durability. Weighing only 1240 grams, it accurately transmits Force Feedback from the wheelbase to the driver’s hands. The ergonomically designed rubber silicone grips offer maximum grip and comfort, and with a rim diameter of 280 mm, the wheel is ideal for sim racing.

The wheel features a bright and vivid 4.3-inch (480×800) display that shows the most relevant data. Both the RaceDirector and SimHub software have authentic dashboards and LED profiles adopted from the Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team wheel. Additionally, the wheel has 14 high-quality buttons, 9 rotary encoders, a clutch mechanism, and a mono-shift paddle. Each button, encoder, and function is designed for optimal performance and accessibility, allowing for quick adjustments without losing focus.

The Sim-Lab Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS Formula One Team Sim Racing Steering Wheel is available through the web store for €2,699.00, excluding shipping costs.
